Dear Richard,
I, too, am not interested in "conspiracy" or "secret knowledge" books that pull "information" out of thin air. On the other hand, it is sometimes these very books that serve as a spark for more scholarly works. One fact that does puzzle me is that certain records that concern U.S. military operations in certain parts of Germany were sealed for 100 years. For what purpose? I do not think "no reason" is the answer. I am aware that some documents that only contained the word "atomic," much less actual plans on how to build the device, were routinely classified solely because that word was mentioned.
Photographs have recently surfaced of a Canadian VTOL aircraft. The photos show a mock-up of an aircraft designed in the 1950s that officially did not exist. When shown the photos, those involved in designing it simply said, "Oh, I thought all of those had been destroyed years ago."
Regards,
Ed
